    Contrary to US elections, we actually have multiple parties. So even if a right wing party is the biggest, they have to work together with other parties to actually govern. Meaning they have to drop certain standpoints, or be in the opposition instead. The failsafe are there to not let a party reign supreme unless they have a 51% majority, which thankfully is improbable.

      We had fail-safes. Lots of them. Slowly but surely they’ve been errored and erased and now there’s nothing to protect the people. Don’t have blind faith in any system and stay vigilant my friends.
